The 10,000 hour rule.

How long have you been looking for whatever it is so far?

Well, since I don't know what it is that i'm supposed to be looking for, it's kind of redundant, but it was about 2 years ago where these traders told me this, and i've been looking for clues ever since (with no success)

Maybe it's something that's impossible to work out, and you need someone already on 'the inside' to let you in!

look at yourself before you inquire about others.

It would be very interesting to know where this guy put the
20,000 hours into.

When the actual number was rounded off was it rounded up or down to the nearest 10k ?

Speaking of rounded numbers, 95 is another one, I guess one compliments the other so everything adds up in the end.

I wonder how many bit coins can be accumulated in that time?

I think it's more to do with information than practice.

There's a few traders on trade2win who have proved their ability and are obviously making lots of money everyday.
They won't tell me how they do it, but they both tell me that it's nothing to do with charts OR time+sale/DOM reading etc.

They say it's nothing that you will ever find in a book or on the internet.

I think I'll spend my life looking for whatever it is.
Both of these traders admitted that they were shown by successful traders and both said that they would never have found 'it' by themselves due to the mental shift in thinking required.

T2W? Would you care to share their user names? If it was genuine, You could just maybe look through their posts and gain some inspiration maybe

I'll put in the 10,000 hours and report back to you if you cover my fees and pay me every time I accidentally open my spam folder. Oh yeah.. and food, I need some food Is there a day trading food delivery programs ?

Done that.
One of them posted for years with posts all to do with the usual stuff/TA/charts etc. They appeared to be a break-even trader at best.
Then they disappeared off the forum for a year or 2.
They've only made a few posts since that 2 year gap which have been vague, but to say that they'd finally discovered the truth, and suggest that we are all barking up the wrong tree with charts/TA/everything that is online and in books.

The other poster only posted for a few weeks or so, a few years ago.
They only made a handful of posts, but all seemed quite insightful, though they clearly didn't intend to give away any specifics.
Only that ''market nearly always telegraphs it's intentions, but this vital information can't be found with traditional price charts'' and suggests that charts/time+sales/everything else i've ever heard mentioned, will never give anyone the depth of information required to make informed trading decisions.

I obviously always considered this a possibility, but the further on I go, the more I think that they're right.

The goal of a secret is to be contained. Yet a secret cant be a secret if its existence is not known.

However did you come across such people in such a big sea of traders ?

Very profound. I think you might be amazed at the information readily handed to others on this site. They just don't realize it.

I'm a bit slow to read, so maybe I missed the answer, if there are many answers then that is better !

It really is amazing that so much information is given and in such details. There are few places one can go and learn so much on a topic. By looking at many traders posts one can put together a good system for free ! Actually the site goes beyond that and one can learn other topics like learning to learn and maths and programming and psychology and so much more.
